I'll reserve judgement until after the first few games but seems like a decent signing in an area where we needed a bit more quality. Can take a set piece too so should fill the gap left if/when Mbenza leaves.

Thought this was quite a good bit about him Good write up and sounds promising. He could be the missing piece of the jigsaw.

Never heard of him and know nothing about him other than he’s not good enough for Norwich.

Never heard of him and know nothing about him other than he’s not good enough for Norwich. Or he's not good enough for the Premier League, which doesn't mean he isn't good enough for the Championship. There's been plenty of top level Championship players go up to the prem and fail, a few very familiar to us...

The club says 'loan with an option to buy'...
Have we ever not taken up the option when we have done these deals?
Lossl, Hadergjonaj, Mbenza....
Can it be read that we have already agreed a fee to buy him at the end of the season?
Less option, more obligation.

Sounds promising does this...I'm off to the bookies to put 20 on promotion. Joking aside but in all honesty, could be a decent bit of business. Only £20? ;-)

And he was behind buendia probably the best player in league and just sold for 40m and Todd cantwell so it’s no shame In not playing for Norwich

His 2 goals v Sevilla here -from about 5mins in (Sevilla go 5-0 up in first 5 minutes). Good finishes to be fair

I'm not sure what level he'll be at but certainly worth a punt. Carlos sees him as a left footed right winger that can finish- so essentially a Koroma-esque option for the right hand side.
If he turns out to be good enough to start that'd hopefully shift Pipa to more of a classic overlapping wing back, rather than the overcomplicated cutting inside role he ended up having.

So, is he a replacement for Daly? Pritchard? or Mbenza?
Can't say I've ever heard of him, hope he goes well!

How long until someone calls him Daniel.... 😳🤦🏻♂️ If he comes good and starts smashing a few goals, surely he will be nicknamed the tsunami !

I have seen hm referred to as a Striker and an attacking Midfielder. It appears he is a Midfielder though?.
He looks a really good Player and Norwich rarely sign a dud but do we need another Player in this position?.

I would have said prior to Sinani's arrival that if we were to only sign one more player this summer I would want it to be a creative midfielder - so yes.

I don't know anything about him but let's hope he can give us the creative quality we are lacking.

Does this finally put an end to Holmes being a starter on the right of the front 3 or in midfield ? I hope so.
Looking forward to seeing this signing.

Thanks for the clarification, I will take this as a good signing then. I guess to replace the skill (and at times frustration!) that Eiting brought. To be fair, I should have probably appreciated Eiting more than I did.

To be fair, I should have probably appreciated Eiting more than I did. Dunno. He might be shit. I've no idea whether he's any good or not. Failure to break into their side ahead of Placheta, Hernandez, Buendia & Cantwell doesn't concern me. On the other hand he arrived there a year ago, went out immediately on loan without playing a game & then released to us. Might be the midfield equivalent of Jordy Hiwula for all I know. As for Eiting, I suspect you weren't alone. I rated his ability but also noted his tendency to struggle at times with the pace of the English game & become anonymous. The difference he made to the side when he came back after injury made it clear to me how much we'd missed his vision & creative ability. From what I can tell, Sinani looks like he tends to play further forward than Eiting so not a direct replacement as such.
